Hitman: Absolution Introduces The Kill

October 4, 2012

While Hitman has always been about creativity in a sandbox full of violent little toys, Hitman: Absolution seems to be focused on allowing players to start kicking sand in everyone's eyes and face, should the need arise. Of course, leaving a pile of dead bodies lying around won't make things easy.

Honestly, all I can ask for from Hitman: Absolution and IO Interactive is a more balanced approach to the gameplay they've come to define. Sneaking around and finding unique ways of killing your target is fun, but the aftermath of a botched job should be fun too.

Introducing the Kill, above, seems to suggest that my fear has been addressed. Hitman: Absolution is helping to close out the Fall season on November 20th, 2012 on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.

I attended San Jose State University and graduated in 2010 with a Bachelor's in English and a Minor in Journalism. I've been playing games my whole life and will continue to do so as long as they stay entertaining! Some of my favorite games include Team Fortress 2, Battlefield 3, Star Fox 64, Batman: Arkham City, Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem, Counter-Strike: Source, Super Mario Bros. 3, Kirby's Dream Land, and the list goes on.
